The Mujahedeen have been smuggling arms, food and other supplies from within Pakistan and across the mountains to a local logistics hub.
Each one of these convoys gives them more western weapons to wage war against the Soviet forces.
Intelligence reports that the convoy has left a mountain base in Pakistan and is just moments from the border.
The Soviets are scrambling a CAS mission to aid the KGB's effort to stop their supplies from reaching the Mujahedeen base near Landar.
This mission is one of patience, VFR skills, accuracy, and endurance.
Plan for a sortie of half an hour to almost an hour.
Master your map reading skills.
The intel report regarding the convoy's route in the brief may not be "accurate"
Know the area surrounding the new KGB outpost. We know the armed convoy is heading in that direction.
It must never reach its destination.
As we do not know exactly when they will cross the mountain pass near the outpost - you will need to loiter in the area conserving fuel and keeping a watchful eye.
Conserve your fuel. Maintain a VFR pattern low in the area of the KGB outpost.
Engage once the outpost has signaled signal you. Trust me - they will get your attention.
Tensions are high with the surrounding nations.
DO NOT ENTER PAKISTAN'S AIRSPACE.
Violating their airspace will immediately end the mission. (Absolute Failure)
Good Luck
Happy Hunting!
